Voters in France are heading to the polls in an exceptional parliamentary election that could shift the government towards nationalist, far-right forces, impacting various significant aspects including European financial markets and global military strategies.
Discontent among French voters regarding economic concerns and Macron's leadership has been channelled by Marine Le Pen's National Rally party and a new left-wing coalition, posing a significant challenge to the current centrist government.
Macron's decision to call for an early election stemmed from his party's defeat in the European Parliament elections by the National Rally, a party with historical ties to racism and hostility towards minority communities like Muslims.
Despite efforts to rally moderate forces against the far right, pre-election polls indicate an increase in support for the National Rally, indicating a potential shift in the government's composition.
